- Out of 199 police station areas in Jammu and Kashmir, only areas under 11 police stations are under limited restrictions.

- Bank ATMs are functioning and over ₹98 core has been disbursed through them.
However, in the wake of Muharram processions, curfew-like situations are re-imposed in several parts of Valley. This is because of the possible occurrence of violence due to huge congregations.
Many security force personnel have been deployed at all entry points of Valley to maintain law and order.
Officials said that there are no reasons as such to re-impose the restrictions, but it is believed that these are the preventive measures against possible violence as part of gatherings during Muharram processions.
